It is expected that up to 200,000 people attend the funeral, that Francis choreographed when he reviewed and simplified the rituals and rituals of the Vatican last year. His goal was to emphasize the role of the Pope as a simple priest and not “a powerful man of this world,” said the Vatican.
It was a reflection of Francis’s 12 -year project to radically reform the papacy, emphasize his pastors as servants and build “a poor church for the poor.” It was a mission that articulated only a few days after his 2013 election and explained the name he chose as Pope, in honor of San Francisco de Asís, “who had the heart of the poor of the world,” according to the official decree of the life of the Pope that was a place.
However, never, the powerful will attend on Saturday. The president of the United States, Donald Trump, the French president Emmanuel Macron, the leaders of the European Union and the UN Chief bind to Prince William and the Spanish Royal Family in the main official delegations. The Argentine president, Javier Milei, had the pride of the place given the Argentine nationality of Francis, even if the two did not get along and Francis alienated many Argentines for never returning home.
Francis is breaking with the recent tradition and Will buried in the Basilica Mayor of Santa María, near the Main Train Station of Rome, where a simple underground grave awaits you with only its name: Franciscus. As expected that many 300,000 people on the axis will align on the 2.5 -mile car route that will bring the Vatican Francis coffin through the center of Rome to the basilica after the funeral.
Francis, the first Latin American Pope and first Jesuit, died of Easter at 88 years after suffering a stroke while recovering at the house of pneumonia.
